Résumé :
Nick Blacksheep was an outsider to all : the police force, his community and the women he kept at arm's length. Experienced in modern warfare, the tall Navajo's imposing spirit recalled the intensity of his ancestors. His heart incapable of wounding, Nick was the fiercest protector beautiful Drew Simmons could have ever imagined-or desired.

Beaucoup d'action dans ce roman où les « méchants » jouent au chat et à la souris avec la « victime » (Drew Simmons) et l'enquêteur lui servant de garde du corps.

“I always thought my father had made my mother’s life a hell on earth,” she whispered. “I saw Dad as a man who was married to his work—and Mom took the leftovers. But I was wrong about them. The truth is right there in those old photos. There’s a lot more to my mom and dad’s story than I ever realized.”

She was starting to suspect that, although he WANTED to be the type of man who only believed in what he could see and touch, there was another equally strong side of him that hoped there was more to life than that.
